Grace Lutheran Church is a come-as-you-are church with a casual atmosphere and a message that makes sense for everyday life. Perhaps you are new to our church, or even new to “worship services” in general. Perhaps you haven’t attended for awhile. In any case, in a new church, most of us find ourselves, at some time or another, saying: “Help! What do I do next?”
Hopefully, this guide will help you to relax and feel comfortable. We also hope that you will find worshipping here a meaningful experience. We look forward to seeing you!
Worship Service
Worship Services takes place every Sunday at 8:15am and 10:45am.
Children
Children are welcome to participate in our worship services, and enjoy a Children’s message at the 10:45am service. There is a nursery available in the fellowship hall and we provide childcare workers at Christmas and Easter services.
Sunday School is held at 9:30am in the Sunday School rooms located next door to the church. Children’s Sunday School is available during the school year except on school holiday weekends and vacations.
Communion
All are welcome at our table.
Communion is served around the alter. It is served individually, with separate small glasses and bread distributed to each person. If you need to be served in the pew, just let the usher know and the pastor will come to you. Children are encouraged to receive a special blessing while their parents participate in Communion. Remember: All are welcome to the table here.
Worship Style
We offer several styles of worship. The 8:15am service is more traditional in its liturgy and music. The 10:45am service is more open style with contemporary uplifting music. Both services provide a sense of community, a chance to participate in the services and inspiring sermons.
Attire
Attire ranges from dressy to work dress to casual. You are invited to wear what you feel comfortable wearing.
Fellowship Hour
Following Sunday Worship, all are welcome to gather in the fellowship hall for coffee, beverages and often a light snack. This serves as an opportunity to get to know one another better and learn more about the church, its offerings and opportunities. All are welcome to join us.
Parking
There is a large parking lot surrounding the church.
Disabled Access
There are several spaces reserved directly in front of the church for disabled parking or drop off. A ramp to the church is located at the west entrance. The fellowship hall is also accessible via wheelchair.
